The detail in this surround is something else. Ornate decorative panels, deep mouldings and a rich metallic finish give it so much character.

The clean lines of the inset stove sit beautifully within it, with a simple dark hearth bringing the whole design together. A lovely combination of elaborate craftsmanship and modern stove design.

A fireplace with real presence. 🔥

Around ten years on, and still looking fabulous! 🔥

We recently returned to service this customer’s stove and had the pleasure of revisiting the fireplace we designed and reconstructed all those years ago.

The painted brickwork, beautiful stone hearth and built-in log store give it so much character, and that glowing fire finishes it off perfectly.

There’s something lovely about returning to a home and seeing our work still being enjoyed many years later!

A NEW HOME. THE SAME PRINCIPLES. 🔥

After 35 years in the fireplace industry, serving customers across Essex and beyond, we’re bringing our experience, craftsmanship and concepts to our new home.

Yesterday, we closed our Battlesbridge wood-burning showroom for the last time. Tomorrow, Monday 26 October, Scarlett Fireplaces opens its new centre of excellence at Grapnells Farm, Wallasea Island, Rochford.

Our new premises bring together our workshop, warehouse, stove and fireplace displays, with room to develop the ideas that will take our family business forward.

And what a setting to do it in, within the RSPB’s Wallasea Island rewilding project.

Over the years, we’ve designed and built fireplaces, restored historic chimneys, explored environmental practices and tackled the challenges that come with buildings that rarely fit neatly into an installation manual.

That experience, care and attention to detail come with us.

Like many independent businesses, we’re adapting to dysfunctional and dystopian times. This move gives us the space and flexibility to strengthen our future around what we do best.

For our customers, all our services continue: wood-burning stoves, fireplace design and construction, chimney and flue work, servicing, sweeping and ongoing support.

Same family team. Same commitment to doing things properly.

Visits and collections at Grapnells Farm will be by appointment. We’ll continue coming to you for surveys and installations, with deliveries also available.

We’re now in a stronger position and excited about what comes next, including projects further exploring responsible wood burning, renewable energy and building efficiency. There’s plenty more to come.

To our customers, suppliers, fellow tradespeople, friends and family: thank you. Your support has helped us build this business, and we’re looking forward to sharing its next chapter with you.

Welcome to our new home of wood burning. 🔥

BE READY? SOME OF US ALREADY ARE. 🔥

Watching Wes Streeting on Question Time, we couldn't help wondering whether anyone in Whitehall has spoken to someone who actually designs and installs fireplaces and stoves.

Power cuts. Cyber attacks. Three days' supplies. Torches. Food that doesn't need cooking.

All sensible. But something rather obvious is missing.

While a few anti-burning campaigners push to phase out domestic wood burning and Defra works with them on tighter stove regulations, the Government is telling us to prepare for when the systems we're told to rely on fail.

Could somebody please join the bloody dots?

We've spent decades designing and installing fireplaces, chimneys and stoves that provide warmth without relying on gas and electric.

And the British-made Charnwood Haven in this video goes further.

Heat. Firelight. An oven to cook dinner. A hotplate to boil the kettle. Heat and ventilation to dry clothes.

All without mains electricity. No standing charge required.

Just a suitable installation, a properly functioning chimney, dry logs and someone who knows how to use it.

Our grandparents called it being prepared for winter. Apparently, it's now called 'national resilience'

Of course, high standards matter. That's our job. But so does recognising the value of independent heat and cooking.

So, Government: lovely campaign. Perhaps next time, invite someone who can actually keep the kettle boiling.

We're ready. Are you? 🔥

Let the world wait a little… 🔥🥂

Golden flames dance behind the glass, casting their glow over deep red roses and two glasses of something sparkling. Candlelight flickers, fairy lights shimmer, and the whole scene invites you to settle in and stay a while.

You can almost feel the warmth through the photograph. That lovely, unhurried feeling when the lights are low, your glass is full, and there’s no particular reason to look at the clock.

This stunning picture was sent to us by a lovely friend and customer, and we couldn’t resist sharing it. Simone Lorraine Giles 🧡

A little romance, a beautiful fire, and an evening worth staying home for. ❤️

Charnwood C-five wood stove with custom made limestone mantel, slate tiled hearth and boarded chamber.

This is a classic Scarlett Fireplaces design with classic material choices that perfectly showcase the charm of the Charnwood C Five wood burning stove.

With a boarded chamber and a traditional limestone mantel, coupled with a beautiful charcoal slate hearth this is a winning combination suiting a wide range of interiors styles.

A slate tiled hearth, floating oak mantel shelf and Charnwood C Five wood burning stove come together to create this clean, contemporary fireplace.

The plain boarded chamber keeps the lines simple, while using the same colour throughout the chamber and chimney breast creates a seamless finish. Natural oak and slate add warmth and texture, giving the stove space to take centre stage.

Great to see Jason featured across a double-page spread in the latest Fireplace Specialist Magazine 🔥

After more than 35 years working within the industry, Jason is calling for a more balanced, evidence-led conversation around domestic wood burning, looking at the whole system and what actually happens in real homes.

His message is simple:

“Domestic wood burning is not one thing. It is a system.”

A great feature on a subject Jason has been passionate about for a long time.

He’s finally got both sons up on the roof, relining and backfilling a chimney while he stands on the ground, 'supervising'!

Years of teaching them the trade, passing on his knowledge and getting them up to Dad’s very exacting standards are finally paying off.

Awww look at that face.....Proud Dad moment, completed it, mate! 🙌🏾🤣

Yesterday’s office came with a pretty decent view…

Chimney work, sunset and a front row seat.

Not a bad way to finish the day! 🧡
